When he arrived at the hospital, he found Clarisa’s friends—Patrick, Cyena, and Loren—standing outside her room. They looked at him as if they wanted to clarify something. "How is Clarisa?" he asked, breaking the silence, as none of them seemed willing to speak. "She's inside, it looks like she’s asleep... Reed, is it true that you’re also the father of Diana’s unborn child?" Patrick asked, giving him a piercing look while waiting for his answer. Reed felt like he was on the hot seat. "I-I don’t know. She disappeared for a long time and didn’t show up. The last time we saw each other was at my wedding with Clarisa..." "If she is really pregnant and I’m the father, I will take responsibility for the child, but I need to be sure. I’ll have the baby undergo a DNA test." Clarisa’s friends exchanged glances. He wanted to tell them to believe him and not Diana, but he had no evidence. Even he was confused by everything that was happening. He excused himself and entered his wife’s room
CLARISA: Today is the day she’s being discharged from the hospital. Her mother came to help pack her things, and Lolo Miguel was there to settle the hospital bill. "Dear, after you’re discharged, you’ll still be staying at the mansion," Lolo Miguel said. "But I don’t want to go there, Grandpa! I want to stay at our house!" she insisted. "That’s not possible, dear. You’re pregnant, and you need help with your pregnancy. Especially since you still have amnesia, you need someone to guide you. I’ll hire a private nurse for you." "But Grandpa, my mom and dad can take care of me!" She wanted to insist on staying at their house; she didn’t want to live under the same roof as that womanizing Reed. "My decision is final—you’ll stay at the mansion. I won’t risk the welfare of my future grandchild because of your stubbornness!" Lolo Miguel said firmly. She was stunned. In her entire life, she had never seen Lolo Miguel so angry. "Listen to Don Miguel, Clarisa. This is all for your own go
Her husband helped her out of the car once more. "Lolo, can I stay in a different room?" she pleaded with the elderly man. "No! You’ll stay in your room with your husband... that’s how it should be. Besides, you need someone with you, even when you sleep, to keep an eye on you," Don Miguel insisted. Clarisa frowned, while Reed secretly smiled. His grandfather would do anything to ensure they reconciled as a couple. "Come on, sweetheart... you need to rest," Reed said gently. Clarisa stormed off to their room, not bothering to wait for him. She was so irritated that she walked off angrily. When Reed entered the room, she was already sitting on the bed, waiting for him. "Let’s get one thing straight, Reed! I don’t care if Lolo says we have to sleep in the same room, but there’s no way I’m letting you sleep next to me in this bed! You stay on the sofa, and I’ll sleep on the bed! Understood?" "Yes, sweetheart..." Reed responded like a child, seemingly just following her lead. She
Once Reed was sure she was comfortable, he went into the bathroom. She was startled when he came out, completely naked, walking around their room casually. She thought he would have assumed she was asleep, but he didn’t realize she was watching him. Was he modeling or something? But in fairness, her husband did look quite handsome. His body was stunning—muscles defined, a flat stomach, and impressive abs... Wow! Her gaze traveled to his manhood. She gasped. How did something so big and long fit inside her? How did she handle it? Didn’t she lose consciousness when he entered her? Shit, his manhood was enormous. Her whole body suddenly heated up. Perhaps Reed sensed she wasn’t asleep yet and approached her. Still naked, he was now right in front of her. "Sweetheart... aren’t you asleep yet? Is something wrong?" Shit, he caught me not sleeping!!! "Uh, I’m having trouble falling asleep..." she lied. If only he knew she had been watching him all this time. "Do you need anything?"
“Iha, this is your private nurse, Janeth,” Don Miguel introduced. “Hi, Ms. Clarisa!” Janeth greeted the nurse. “Hi, Janeth...” She looked at the nurse. She was quite beautiful, like a model nurse. She must have some foreign blood; she was mestiza and tall. Is she a nurse or a model? she wondered to herself. She suddenly thought about her husband. Oh no, he’s going to be in trouble with his unfaithful husband again! This one might get pregnant too. She frowned. “What’s wrong, dear? Are you feeling anything unusual?” Don Miguel asked worriedly, perhaps noticing the change in her expression. “Ah, nothing, Lolo. The baby just moved a bit, so my stomach suddenly hurts,” she lied. “Ah, the baby! Baby, come out soon. Lolo is excited to see you!” Don Miguel said cheerfully. “Alright, you stay here while I take care of things at the orchard. Janeth, take care of Ms. Clarisa, don’t leave her side.” “Yes, Don Miguel.” Clarisa was bored at home. Don Miguel went off to the orchard, Reed w
“I’m not suspicious; that’s a fact! And I don’t care if you’re seeing other women… Go ahead and see as many as you want!” “Hahaha... You’re cute, sweetheart. Don’t be sulky; our baby might turn out to be ugly if you keep it up!” “Hmmp... Fine, I’m going to sleep!” “Good night, sweetheart. I love you!” “I love you too, your face!” she replied and ended the call. Sigh... What else does he need to do for his wife? His patience with Clarisa was growing. He secretly smiled, knowing he was starting to win back his wife’s favor. A little more tenderness, and she would be his again. A little while later, he heard a knock at the door. He straightened himself up, put on some shorts, as he was only in his briefs after his shower. After putting on his shorts, he opened the door. It was probably just Aling Nena. They were the only ones in the house. “Reed! It’s good to see you here!” He was mistaken… It was Glenda. She was wearing just a small piece of fabric. He knew she was flirting wit
The friends were already by the pool. It had been a long time since they last saw each other. If it weren’t for their project, they wouldn’t have gotten together again.Each of them had their own businesses, but they decided to form a company together and plan to build a subdivision.They had acquired a one-thousand-hectare lot in Batangas, which they would develop into a subdivision.While waiting for their dinner, one of them sent over some beer so they could have a drink first... just to warm up a bit.After a while, Glenda arrived, bringing the pork stew her friends had asked to be prepared."Wow, that looks delicious, Glenda!""Yes, Sir! My mom’s cooking is really good!" she said, playfully charming her friends, even batting her eyes. He just sighed."Can I take a picture with you handsome gentlemen?" Glenda asked."Why? We’re not celebrities," Jon chimed in—he was the most playful among them."Oh, Sir! You’re even more handsome than actors! You look like F4! The ones from that T
"Good morning, Grandpa," Clarisa said as she arrived at the dining room, where the elderly man was having coffee."Good morning, dear." He stood up and helped her sit down."Grandpa, why do I have a new nurse again? Janeth has only been here for two days. What happened to her? Did something happen?""I replaced her, dear. Reed asked me to. He thought you might get jealous. He doesn’t want you to feel bad about little things he didn’t even do, so he thought it would be best if I just replaced Janeth."Clarisa thought about what her grandfather said. Jealous of Janeth? She remembered she had teased Reed, saying that her new nurse was pretty and sexy. She smiled at the thought. She had only been joking, but Reed had taken it seriously. Poor Janeth—she lost her job because of it.But it was probably for the best. Janeth wasn’t doing her job well anyway, and Maria was much better and more attentive."Maria is great, dear. She’s experienced, so she’ll be a big help to you, especially since
Hand in hand, they walked along the beach. The strong wind blew her white dress, and she felt like a goddess, with Reed as her prince. A smile formed on her face as she thought about it."Sweetheart... do you remember when you confessed to me that you loved me too? It was under that tree, right?" Reed said, pointing to the coconut tree.She blushed... she remembered that day. They had shared happiness beneath that tree. After what happened between them, she finally told Reed that she loved him too. She still remembered how happy her husband was in those days."Uh... what happened again? I can't remember," she lied."Is that so?" Reed replied, not believing her. "Do you want us to reenact it so you can remember?" he said with a playful smile."Alright... remind me," she said. Her husband took her hand, and they went to the tree he pointed to. She panicked... what if he meant what he said about repeating what they did there? Luckily, they were the only ones at the resort because Lolo Mi
"Glenda!!!" They were startled when Reed suddenly appeared out of nowhere. His gaze was fixed on the two women, and their faces turned pale."What is this nonsense?" Reed shouted at them. He didn’t stop his wife from speaking; in fact, he was glad to hear Glenda’s plan of trying to separate them directly from her own mouth. He had been too kind, and now he was always being taken advantage of. It was up to Reed to make the decision for both of them."Ah, Kuya Reed... nothing, we were just joking around, me and Ate Clarisa..." Glenda said calmly, her act returning."That’s not what I heard! Why did you say you were supposed to be my wife if Clarisa hadn’t come? Because I’ve been treating you and your mother well, you thought you could marry me?" Reed’s voice was full of anger."Kuya... huhuhu... I'm sorry... I did that because I love you... I’ve loved you since I was a child," Glenda explained. She grabbed Reed’s hand, but he shook her off."Sir Reed, please forgive Glenda... she’s st
CLARISA:Clarisa remained silent. She didn’t tell Reed that her memory had returned... maybe it was due to the blow Fernando gave her to the head."Sir Reed!" An older woman called out as she approached them. Clarisa recognized her... it was Aling Nena, Reed’s caretaker at the resort."So you're here too, Mam Clarisa. Long time no see!" she smiled at her, but the smile was obviously fake."Hello, Aling Nena. I’m sorry if I don’t remember you well... Reed told me I’ve been here before?" Clarisa replied."Yes, Mam, but...""Kuya Reed!" A woman's voice called out, and it was Glenda, Aling Nena’s daughter. Clarisa remembered that she had a crush on Reed, which was why she had pushed her on the rocks that caused her amnesia.As usual, Glenda was wearing a crop top and skimpy shorts. She was about to hug Reed, but he avoided her."Glenda... so you're here too..." Reed said, sounding uninterested. He probably felt that she was flirting with him."I found out from Mom that you were coming, so
Clarisa has been transferred to a private room, and Nanay Celia and Tatay Kardo arrived from Quezon Province. Lolo Miguel and Blue were also at the hospital. Blue cried upon seeing his mommy lying in a hospital bed. Clarisa was still unconscious."Anak... be strong... you've gone through so many problems, I hope this is the last one, huhuhu..." Nanay Celia said while crying. She was devastated for her daughter."Be strong, Celia... nothing bad will happen to our daughter... just trust in God," Tatay Kardo said, sitting beside his wife’s bed, holding her hand tightly. Even if it's just through his hold, he wanted to show his wife that he would never leave her."Daddy, is mommy gonna be okay?" Blue asked, climbing up onto the bed and lying next to Clarisa, hugging her tightly.He felt tears well up. "Yes, anak, mommy’s gonna be okay.""Blue?"They were surprised when Clarisa suddenly spoke… she was awake!He stood up quickly from his seat and went to his wife. "Sweetheart, you’re awake?
REED:He arrived at the hospital to pick up his wife. He went to the nurse's station, but Clarisa wasn’t there yet. Her friends, Patrick, Cyena, and Loren, were already there."Hi guys, where’s Clarisa?" He asked her friends."She hasn’t arrived yet. She left a while ago!""Where did she go?""She went to room 206. The patient requested for her because they know each other. She’s been gone for a while, but she said she would hurry because you were coming." Cyena said."Who is that man?" He asked, puzzled."His name is Bernard, but Clarisa said she doesn’t know anyone named Bernard. She just went to see him to get it over with."He didn’t know why, but he suddenly felt uneasy. He quickly ran towards room 206."Reed, where are you going?" Clarisa's friends shouted, but he ignored them, rushing to reach room 206. Clarisa's friends also ran after him.He didn’t knock; he immediately opened the door and saw Clarisa lying unconscious on the floor. A man was on top of her. The man was also s
CLARISA:They had been staying in the mansion for a month. Blue and Lolo Miguel had also gone home. She could say she was happy with her life. She had a loving child and husband, and her friends had helped her get a job at the hospital where they worked. Even though Reed said she didn't need to work anymore, she refused... her body longed for the work.Reed would take her to and from the hospital. She wanted to avoid bothering him, but he wouldn't allow it. He said he was happy when he served her. She didn’t make a fuss and decided to give him what he wanted."Sweetheart, I’ll pick you up later, but I’ll be a little late, okay? I need to stop by the bar first," Reed said when he dropped her off at the hospital."OK, sweetheart, no problem. Actually, I can go home by myself... I’m fine with it.""NO! I want to pick you up. You always end up in trouble... those crazy guys keep bothering you!""Hahaha... yeah, you're right! Fine, just pick me up later!"She got out of the car when they r
The sun's rays woke him up. He had forgotten to close the curtains last night because he missed his wife so much. He looked at Clarisa beside him. She was still sleeping soundly, curled up in his arm... both of them still naked.He smiled... he couldn't count how many times they made love last night. He made the most of the opportunity. It felt like a celebration for them because Diana was no longer in their lives, and they had no more problems. Their family would be happy again.He carefully got up, being cautious not to wake his wife. He would let her sleep a little longer... he had worn her out.He went to the bathroom to wash his face and get dressed. He would make breakfast for his wife. He smiled... he used to do that before... he would always bring breakfast to his wife in bed before she woke up. Now that they were back together, he would return to doing the same things for her.When he returned to the bedroom, he brought breakfast for his wife. It was ham and eggs with garlic
He embraced Clarisa once again… they were still unclothed. His manhood was pressing against her lower abdomen. He kissed his wife and guided her to lie down on the bed.They kissed again like there was no tomorrow, his tongue entering Clarisa's mouth as if searching for something, and then their tongues began to duel… “ahhmm…”He shifted his lips to Clarisa’s neck… gently biting her there while his hand freely caressed her firm breasts. “Ahhh… ahhhh…” moaned his wife as he continued nibbling on her neck. He sucked on it like a vampire.“Shit, baby… I missed you so much!” he uttered with intense passion.He spread Clarisa’s thighs and positioned himself between them, then brought his lips to her breasts. He sucked on her right breast like a child thirsting for milk, while his fingers played with the nipple of the left one.Clarisa arched her back in pleasure, overwhelmed by the sensation, almost losing her mind. “Ahhhh... ahhhh…”Moments later, his hand slid between her thighs again, a
Reed breathed a sigh of relief when Diana and Jorge finally left. He never thought this moment would come. Kiel was not really his son—Jorge was the true father. Diana had only made him take responsibility for the child to avoid the shame of being a single mother. Though he wanted to be angry at Diana, he was just grateful that everything was over. He was finally free to be with Clarisa again, and she would no longer be jealous of Diana.He quickly went to the bedroom where Clarisa was. She had no idea what had just happened because she hadn’t left the room since they arrived. He knew she was upset with him because of Diana’s rudeness.When he reached the door, he knocked. “Sweetheart… can you open the door, please?” There was no response. He knocked again, but still, no sound came from inside. He decided to use the key—perhaps Clarisa had fallen asleep.When he opened the door, she wasn’t on the bed. He heard the sound of running water from the bathroom and smiled. Just in time, he t
